    "content": "Last but not least, it was also refreshing to hear that the Government is committed to ensuring that devolution works. However, we have heard this rhetoric since President Uhuru Kenyatta came to power. What he has been doing is what I would call ‗lip service.‘ We would like to see timely releases of county funds to the counties, because that is the biggest complaint we have. There should also be equitable sharing of the national cake between counties and the national Government. The Government should also support the Senate fully in ensuring that we succeed in our oversight role, by ensuring that we are properly funded. Senators should be empowered to oversight their various counties timely rather than waiting for the reports from the Auditor-General. Otherwise, we support the Speech and we hope that the President will walk the talk on the issues that he raised."
